- many months ago I grabbed a drop-on add-on for xcomm called
- xc2 (as I recall) from a site in Australia. It included precompiled
- rz/sz binaries with debugging info off, but it showed the progress of
- the file transfer on the screen as the transfer progressed...
-
- can anybody point me to where that puppy is (assuming it'll work
- with the new kernels) and/or how to get the readily available rz/sz sources
- to output the progress they're making. It's unsettling to transfer a few
- MB of SLS and have everything sit there for many minutes/hours with no
- feedback on the screen regarding how the transfers are progressing.
